Qawsalla means rainbow, and the Qawsalla Hub is the office and drop-in space that LGBTI+ Gozo opened on Triq Enrico Mizzi in Victoria. It is the only dedicated queer space on Gozo.
Free counselling is available and private appointments can be booked by phone or email. Around that the hub runs a standing programme of social groups: a café social for LGBTQ+ women, a queer men's recovery group, board game afternoons, film screenings and newcomer meet-ups. Some of it happens in the hub, some in bars around Victoria, and the organisation posts what is on to its social accounts.
LGBTI+ Gozo has been working on the island since 2015 and co-organises Gozo Pride. Opening times move around, so it is worth checking their channels before walking over.
